CHIMPANZEE "CHILLO" DIES "Chillo," the Lincoln Park Zoos chimpanzee, who has delighted thousands of children and grownups, was found dead in his cage Monday. Floyd Young, zoo director, declared that for two years "Chillo" had been ailing. Two weeks ago, as if aware that his career was ending, he refused to eat. "Chillo" lived to the ripe old age of twenty-five years. He had been at the park zoo for eleven years. His body will be turned over to the University of Illinois Medical 1 School.
